If this is yes?

Then it is incorrect to install in the program x86 folder.

The installation in your case should look like this.

D:\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 5

This would be the default installation from the dvd unless you tell it otherwise.

The installation then adds to your Program x86 Folder and also in your Documents Folder.

JSGME when installed then adds the 'Mods Folder in the Silent Hunter 5 Folder

So yes, I can see why you might have a problem with the GFP looking for your SH5 exe

so essentially your telling me that installing SH5 in the program files(x86) folder is wrong? that i should install the game outside of the program files (x86) folder? that doesn't make sense when i already have other games installed in that folder basically everything that i wanna install goes in that D:\program files (x86) folder...i don't know what to do at this point? and the SH5.exe is the only .exe i have in the main silent hunter 5 folder...so i don't know why the GFP is having trouble finding it?and giving me an error box in the patcher could this be the reason I'm getting CTD?? so what is the next step i should take?

Installing in Program x86 folder is totally wrong and that is why you are getting the problems.

The fact that you expect SH5 to work in the same way as your other games is irrelevant.

Sh5 has to be installed in a particular way.

This would normally be in the C: drive

Default installation is C:\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 5

if you read again what I said >>>> It does also install in the Program x86 Folder as well as the Main Silent Hunter 5 Folder.

When you install SH5 it also installs the Uplay installer.

SH5.exe you are referring to starts Uplay.

These exe should all be showing in your main SH5 folder

JSGME

Goblin Editor

Mission Editor2

You need to do a re-install.

If you want German Voices use the custom install on the dvd.

Is your GFP version 164?
